Qu'elle Faire? Maker Media is in Peril

Some of you may have read the sad news on TechCrunch yesterday that Maker Media is in trouble, and as a consequence, Maker Faire may be in peril. Many (including all of us at Core77) are heartbroken that this is happening. The Make(r) Movement is one of the critical, propulsive forces in driving young people into design, STEM, open-source, and self-expression, and Make: Founder Dale Dougherty is an absolute visionary. We promise to keep you posted on any developments, but in the meantime, head over to the just-launched GoFundMe Campaign, and please consider contributing to this.
